美国50个州的简介 4 | 口语小本本spoken.cc

[00:00.00]From Detroit Michigan, you actually 
[00:01.79]end up in Canada if you travel due south, 
[00:04.38]and Michigan is also the only state to 
[00:06.42]be made of two entirely separated sections.
[00:09.29]Michigan's Highway 185 is actually a bike path, 
[00:12.80]making it the only official highway 
[00:14.80]in America where cars are banned.
[00:16.99]Michigan's upper peninsula is only connected 
[00:19.91]by land to Wisconsin which is home 
[00:22.10]to the Green Bay Packers, 
[00:23.22]a team so popular that the waiting list 
[00:25.42]for season tickets is 30 years long.
[00:27.77]It's so long that its common for parents 
[00:30.20]to put their kids name on the list 
[00:31.77]as soon as they're born.
[00:32.91]In Watertown Wisconsin is Utah street, 
[00:35.31]but the real Utah has the longest 
[00:37.65]section of Interstate in the US 
[00:39.31]with no gas stations—106 miles on I-70.
[00:43.38]I-70 ends over 2,000 miles away 
[00:46.20]in Baltimore, Maryland, and the entire 
[00:48.60]state of Maryland has zero natural lakes.
[00:51.55]It also has this panhandle that reaches a 
[00:54.15]minimum width of 1.8 miles 
[00:55.98]before expanding back out to 30 miles 
[00:58.19]width out near West Virginia, 
[00:59.80]which is definitively a southern state 
[01:01.76]but also has a panhandle that reaches 
[01:03.95]as far north as New York City and Nebraska.
[01:06.86]Monowi Nebraska is the only incorporated 
[01:09.79]municipality in the United States 
[01:11.59]that have a population of one.
[01:13.52]The one resident, Elsie Eiler, 
[01:15.77]is mayor and runs the library and tavern 
[01:18.45]which is granted a liquor license 
[01:20.80]each year by Elsie herself.
[01:21.72]Tortilla Flat, Arizona is six times larger 
[01:24.73]than Monowi since it has six residents, 
[01:26.81]and Arizona also has 1/4 of 
[01:29.10]the four corners monument—the only point 
[01:31.37]where four states meet in the US: 
[01:33.26]Arizona, Utah, Colorado, and New Mexico 
[01:36.80]which as a state, by law, 
[01:37.80]still recognizes Pluto as a planet.
[01:40.12]New Mexico is typically the last state 
[01:42.26]to vote in presidential primaries, 
[01:43.92]whereas Iowa is usually the first.
[01:46.00]Iowa is the only state in the US whose 
[01:48.68]eastern and western borders are both water, 
[01:51.62]in this case rivers, the eastern border 
[01:54.13]is the Mississippi river, which happens 
[01:56.60]to be the namesake for Mississippi.
[01:57.93]The Mississippi river also flowed 
[02:00.13]backwards for a full 24 hours in 2012 
[02:03.81]during Hurricane Isaac, but the Mississippi 
[02:06.30]doesn't actually reach the ocean 
[02:07.53]in Mississippi, It does so in Louisiana.
[02:10.60]Home to the longest bridge over water 
[02:11.89]in the world at 24 miles. 
[02:14.00]That's so long that for eight of those miles, 
[02:16.95]you can't even see land on either side.
[02:19.38]One of the other longest bridges 
[02:20.93]in the US is in North Carolina, 
[02:22.54]the the Virginia Dare Memorial Bridge 
[02:24.61]which carries cars out to Kitty Hawk 
[02:26.58]where the Wright Brothers successfully 
[02:28.45]flew a heavier than air aircraft 
[02:29.94]for the first time in history.
[02:31.94]It was a 12 second, 120 foot flight, 
[02:35.10]thats shorter than the wingspan of a Boeing 747.
